The mysterious outer space is remote, silent, vast and profound. The twin phenomena of destruction and creation are constantly taking place.

Supernova explosions, gamma-ray bursts, black hole devourings, planet collisions, all kinds of astronomical phenomena are magnificent and splendid. However, when magnified to the cosmic scale, they are just like a spray in the boundless universe or a grain of sand in the endless desert...

A disaster befell the third planet in the solar system - the Earth, without any warning signs.

From the perspective of the Moon, a light ball like a small sun could be observed appearing in the southern hemisphere of the Earth, approximately at the location of Australia.

This was an unprecedented super explosion, similar to a nuclear explosion but far more powerful than a nuclear bomb. Compared with it, the most powerful billion-ton nuclear weapon in human history, "Tsar Bomba", wasn't even one ten-thousandth as powerful!

Its explosion diameter was over 3,000 kilometers, larger than the entire continent of Australia. In just a few seconds, all the seawater in the Pacific Ocean was evaporated. The air wave generated by the explosion extended into space at a speed of 5,000 kilometers per hour, forming a mushroom cloud as long as 30,000 kilometers!

The diameter of the Earth is 12,700 kilometers, and the length of the final mushroom cloud was more than twice the diameter of the Earth.

This was a devastating disaster. A quarter of the Earth's sphere was directly destroyed. The cause of the explosion was unknown. It wasn't a nuclear bomb attack or an asteroid impact. Humans hadn't detected any danger information beforehand. Before they could even react, the explosion had already occurred abruptly.

With the mass of the Earth, it simply couldn't withstand a super explosion of this magnitude. Nearly half of the Earth was directly turned into rocks and sand, becoming part of the huge mushroom cloud. As for the rest... First, there were global volcanic eruptions. Then, within a few hours, violent explosions occurred continuously in the depths of the Earth's core, which were intense nuclear reactions. One after another, huge rifts tore the entire Earth's crust apart, ejecting hot magma, just like bright red blood!

The silent universe seemed to be able to hear the final lament of this planet... The Earth was destroyed!

This was a spaceship about 40 meters long, and about 20 meters wide and high. It took off a few hours before the Earth exploded and luckily escaped the disaster.

It was named "Victory", manufactured by more than twenty countries at a cost of hundreds of billions of US dollars. It was the most advanced spaceship in the world. Its effective payload was 500 tons, and its mission this time was to transport supplies and technicians to "Lunar Base 1".

There were more than two hundred people on the spaceship. Well, to be exact, there were two hundred survivors: over twenty special forces soldiers and more than one hundred technicians.

They had just left the Earth when the tragic explosion happened right behind them. They could only say they were extremely lucky!

However, in the hearts of everyone, instead of a sense of relief for having narrowly escaped death, there was shock, confusion, and a feeling of being at a loss... The Earth, the homeland of mankind, was destroyed just like that? Seven billion humans were extinct just like that? Where should the remaining humans go?

Boundless fear and abyssal despair lingered throughout the cabin. Many people couldn't bear the excessive mental pressure and broke down. In just three days, there were three suicide incidents, twenty-two brawl incidents, and even one arson incident...

At this moment, twenty-five special forces soldiers were gathered in front of Yu Yifeng. They were all young. The older ones were around thirty years old, and the younger ones were only in their early twenties or mid-twenties, but there was a unique firmness and vicissitudes in the corners of their eyes.

They hadn't rested for a long time. Although they were mentally exhausted, their postures were still straight.

This was the top special forces team of all mankind and also the last special forces team. It was precisely them who quickly took over the spaceship after the chaos among the people and maintained the final order.

They were originally going to the Moon to conduct training in a low-gravity environment this time but unexpectedly escaped the disaster because of this.

At this time, Captain Yu Yifeng cleared his throat and said in a hoarse voice, "Everyone has been working hard these days! Witnessing the destruction of the Earth with our own eyes and seeing 7 billion compatriots lose their lives instantly, everyone must be feeling bad. I'm no exception."

"I really wish this was just a dream. Unfortunately, it isn't. The Earth has truly exploded. This is a fact that we have to accept... We are lucky that we survived by chance. We are also unlucky because we have forever lost the Earth and our relatives."

He paused for a moment and continued, "However, no matter what, we still have to live on... We are still alive. As long as we are alive, we can't give up hope!"

"Now, Xu Yunjin, step forward and report on the situation of the spaceship!"

Sitting beside Yu Yifeng was the deputy captain of the team, named Xu Yunjin. He was the most senior one in the team, tall and thin, and looked very capable.

Xu Yunjin stepped forward and saluted, then said solemnly, "Report, Captain. Except for a few who suffered mental breakdowns, the emotions of the vast majority of passengers are basically stable. We have also checked the passengers' belongings. Most of the dangerous items have been handed in, and the crew members are also quite cooperative."

The twenty or so people around nodded in agreement. No one would have thought that these highly educated intellectuals would behave so poorly after witnessing the destruction of the Earth. Let alone fighting and brawling, some even attempted suicide. However, under the strong maintenance of the special forces soldiers, the order inside the spaceship was quickly stabilized, and no particularly serious accidents occurred.

It has been three days since the Earth exploded, and this situation has improved a lot. After all, humans are emotional creatures. Their emotions come and go quickly. Most people are afraid of death. Even though the Earth was destroyed, they still want to live...

Yu Yifeng sighed and shook his head again, saying, "The Earth has been destroyed, and we have all lost our relatives. You are all orphans without particular concerns, so you recovered quickly. They are different. Suddenly receiving such a shock, they need time to accept it..."

He paused for a moment and slightly raised his voice, "Now, what I want to tell you is that we still have hope to live on! We are not the only humans alive! There are still 50,000 humans alive at Lunar Base 1!"

Yu Yifeng pointed at the computer and pressed a few keys. A complex model of the Moon appeared on the screen, showing the lunar base, the "Victory" spaceship, and various flight trajectories.

Without hesitation, he directly said, "Look, this is our destination - Lunar Base 1. We are about to enter the lunar near-earth orbit. The spaceship will jet in reverse to slow down. For safety reasons, I will turn off the magnetic system. So, make preparations in advance."

This spaceship makes extensive use of magnetic technology. The clothes and shoes worn by the crew members are all made of magnetic materials. This material will generate a certain amount of suction with the floor. Therefore, the crew members will not be in a weightless state in space.

Although magnetic force is somewhat different from gravity, having it is much more convenient than not having it.

Seeing that the team members all nodded, Yu Yifeng held up two fingers and said, "There are two points to note. First, after turning off the magnetic system, the spaceship will be in a weightless state, and everything will float. You need to check whether each passenger has been properly secured and make sure that every passenger has fastened their seat belts."

"Second." His expression became serious as he pointed to a message on the screen, "There has been a rebellion inside the base. We need to prepare for combat operations on the Moon!"
